  1. Rebound effect (conservation) In energy conservation and energy economics, the rebound effect (or take-back effect) is the reduction in expected gains from new technologies that increase the efficiency of resource use, because of behavioral or other systemic responses. These responses diminish the beneficial effects of the new technology or ...

Example Consider the introduction of a more fuel-efficient vehicle into the market, which uses less gasoline per mile than its predecessors.

  7. Sep 25, 2015 · Here we follow the literature by defining the rebound effect with respect to energy. One could analogously define the rebound effect with respect to emissions (Thomas et al. 2013), which in many cases is proportional to the energy rebound. Exceptions include biofuels policies that lead to indirect land use emissions, or policies that lead to fuel

  8. Definition. The rebound effect, or pharmaceutical rebound phenomenon, is the emergence or re-emergence of symptoms that were either absent or controlled while taking a medication, but appear when that same medication is discontinued, or reduced in dosage. In the case of re-emergence, the severity of the symptoms is often worse than pretreatment ...
